GENERAL COMMENTS ON FOUR ARTICLES...

1) THE JEWS AND THEIR DECEITS BY ADOLF HITLER:




This excerpt is by the Nazi dictator himself, Adolf Hitler, from the book Main Kampf. He was regarded as the most powerful and influential leader during the World War 2. I find that this article is interesting because it shows the main reasons why Hitler was in deep hatred with the Jews. From my opinion, I respect both of the Jews and Hitler himself.

After some study and research on this particular subject, I found many facts and propagandas along the way. For Hitler, the reasons why I respected him because he shows the world how a small community or society can conquer a large number of countries. His wisdom and experiences are something that should be recognized and take as an example for today leader. He managed to battle with the superior power and win the the heart of the citizens. On the other hand, the Jews are known for their cunning and deceitful strategies. They managed to infiltrate the mind of people with their agendas without anyone noticing it. Beside that, they also gain control of the government without using any physical actions. Thus, I thinks that both side are the same attitude and agendas as their main motives is to gain control of the countries by using propagandas,

In my opinion, there should not be any religions or societies that need to be eradicated as every religions teach its followers not to practice the act of genocide among others.



2) Thinking Folly by Eckhart Tolle...




As a student, I'm strongly disagree with the author, Eckhart Tolle, whereas he said that thinking is not a must and thinking also is a disease. His statement that he feels right was by thinking, it creates an opaque screen of concepts, words, judgments, and definitions that blocks all true relationships

In my opinion, thinking is a must that needs to be present in all individual. By the process of thinking, one can differentiate the facts and fictions. It also can determine whether someone has the knowledge and experience in all sorts of aspects. Thinking also can help one to manage their life and devoted themselves to their respective religions. 

However, I'm agree with that sometimes thinking will become a disease because minority of individuals in a large society used the process of thinking to commit crimes, such as arms  robbery. This shows that sometimes thinking can make one become viciousness and means if thinking is misused. 

Even in Islam it stated that looked for different kinds of knowledge even if it takes you to China. Thus, it shows that thinking is the most important part of life.


3) THE DEGREES OF HAPPINESS BY

    BY BERTRAND RUSSELL 




From my stand, I disagree with this author as he stated that there are different level of happiness achieved by    every individuals in this world. As from what I can see, there is no such things as level in achieving pleasure because in the world, all happiness obtain by man is the same does not matter whether you are a great scientist or just a mere artist. According to Bertrand Russell, artists is less happier than the man in science.
This statement shows that the author are have put in his mind that every people who are involve in the science area will gain more happiness than the common people. 

All career in the world are just the same in term of its happiness achieved. From my opinion, it depends on whether one who choose the career will enjoyed the job given, he or she will feel the pleasure of working it. If not, definitely there will be a feeling of unsatisfied and stressed due to the career that they don't like. It is like being force to do it without our own's will.

Thus, there is level of happiness in life because the pleasure achieved is all the same by different sorts of people.


4) MEN AND WOMEN ARE MERELY PLAYERS BY ROBERT GREENE



Robert Greene states that people have to acquire the arts of indirection, learning to seduce charm, deceive or lie, and subtly out maneuver the opponents as a way to obtain the heights of power.

In this modern world of power and status, I must agree with Robert Greene as we must become a players in order to achieve what we want. We cannot be too naive as stated in the article as it shows our weaknesses to others and they can used it to stepped us. For example, in the government sector, there always news about bribery whereas they do it in order to gain status or to attain something. In this world of power play, one must not become a total naive as it will drive you to your obliteration. 

It is in the norms of society where the poor groups are being stepped down by the upper class due to their level of income. If one has the financial, status, and level in life, he or she will be respected by the society and can obtain whatever he or she wants.

However, I still cannot accept some of the ideas because in Islam, It teaches its followers not to discriminate other people as it shows the weakness of Islam. Thus, this method can be used in certain situation because if not, we will be fall down as discarded  by the society.
